A sensor package can include a substrate including a plurality of layers. The plurality of layers can include a first pair of layers and a second pair of layers different from the first pair of layers. The substrate can have a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The sensor package can include a transducer coupled to the second side of the substrate. The sensor package can include an inductor electrically coupled to the transducer. The inductor can be configured as a single layer trace on an inductor layer within the substrate and disposed between the first pair of layers within the substrate. The first pair of layers can be more distal from the second side of the substrate than the second pair of layers.

Integrated microphone and antennas include a microphone and an antenna. The microphone includes a housing and an acoustic transducer. The housing defines a cavity and includes a conductive layer. The acoustic transducer is positioned within the cavity and structured to generate an acoustic signal. The antenna is at least partially integrated with the microphone and structured to transmit and receive radio frequency signals. The antenna is structured to utilize the conductive layer of the housing as a radiating element.
